TiPES Final Meeting
We welcome all TiPES and CriticalEarth members to the next (and final) TiPES meeting, which will take place from September 3rd-8th at the Centro de Ciencias de Benasque Pedro Pascual in Benasque, in the Spanish Pyrenees. All details are explained in the website: https://www.benasque.org/2023tipes/, here we just summarize the main steps to be followed:
Now: Book your flight/train to Barcelona. Getting to Benasque by public transport is difficult, so the center provides a free bus from Barcelona to Benasque on the 3rd at 15:00 and back on the 8th at 9:00, making a flight out of Barcelona in the afternoon possible. Therefore, you are all expected to be in Barcelona by the 3rd and stay in Benasque until the 8th. Invited participants will get their economy travel reimbursed. Please read the instructions carefully and ask in case of doubt.
Before May 15th: Please fill in the Application form. We will then accept it and further information will be individually requested.
After acceptance, the registration fee must be paid to the account of the Centro de Ciencias de Benasque Pedro Pascual. You will need to pay individually following the instructions provided in the website (except for the invited participants).
May 20th-July 1st: Online hotel reservation will follow. We have pre-booked 50 rooms, including breakfast, lunch and dinner, at the Sommos Hotel Benasque Spa. For this we will pay individually onsite (except the invited participants). Here you will also notify any dietary restrictions.
Programme: On Tuesday 5th there will be a reception organized by the Pedro Pascual Centre. The scientific program will follow in the next few weeks. The first version of the program will be sent around by the end of May and updates will follow thereafter.
Objective: Provide a thorough overview of the scaling results which have been found in the climate system and the possible mechanisms behind this behaviour.
Specific Themes: origins of scaling, power laws, multifractal scaling
Relevance: Guarantees that the ESRs have adequate knowledge of this new paradigm of climate variability and be able to connect the results to clear climate dynamical processes.
The programme will include the following:
- Arrival Dinner – (Sunday evening, location TBC).
- ESR workshop 4 (EW4) “Scaling analysis in the climate system” (2 days) (Monday-Tuesday 4th and 5th December 2023)
- David Trads –Communications Workshop (0.5 day) (Wednesday morning 6th December)
- Social Activities/Excursion in local area (0.5 day) (Wednesday afternoon 6th December)
